‘Write once’ multi-platform app development

The number and types of devices people interact with on a daily basis have been expanding at an amazing rate. We now have phones, tablets, wearables, and more in the ever-growing list of connected gadgets and devices. RAD Studio gives developers everything they need to keep up. Within the single RAD Studio app development environment, developers can build high performance, compiled native applications that easily connect with enterprise data, cloud services, devices, sensors, gadgets, and more.

RAD Studio XE7 also multiplies developer productivity with FireUI, enabling them to deliver their apps natively for PCs, tablets, smartphones, and even wearables like Google Glass, from a single codebase, in record time. Developers can get connected apps to market faster by developing for multiple platforms and device form factors simultaneously, with one shared master form and device specific views as needed. It enables them to maintain one shared codebase without sacrificing native platform fidelity.
